My Son Had Two Injections Of Invega (Top voted first)

Updated

Hi, my 20 year old son had a psychotic episode and the doctors aren't sure if it was from years of smoking marijuana or him insufflating what he thought was coke a few days before he got really paranoid. He was hospitalized for two weeks and given the first of two Invega shots three days before his release and the second Invega shot on the day of his release. Two days after his released we had to take him to the ER for a high heart rate and chest pain. He has been out one month and is very terrible. His doctor said he will not get another Invega shot. After reading all the stories about how bad Invega makes you feel, I'm sure it is having the same effect on him. He is in hell, can anyone tell me how long he will feel this way? He only took the first dose of two shots.

Be careful when dealing with some of these drs and psychiatrists. They're all about money no matter how bad the drugs harm your child. One dose of invega sustenna runs 1,700 dollars for each shot. Imagine how much they make off each dose especially if we're allowing them to keep increasing our milligrams when they can convince us they need more when we really don't. Trust me, ive been dealing with this myself with my 19 yr old daughter. Just be careful.
